NFL odds and
spread:
Detroit vs. Washington, Atlanta vs. Tennessee
Our NFL Week 5 betting preview
continues with the odds and point spread on the football games
between the Detroit Lions vs. the Washington Redskins and the
Atlanta Falcons vs. the Tennessee Titans.
We continue the betting previews of the NFL Week 5 games, now
we will take a look at the point spread and betting odds on the
following games: Detroit Lions (3-1) vs. Washington Redskins
(2-1) and Atlanta Falcons (1-3) vs. Tennessee Titans (2-1).
After a great start of the 2007 football
season, the Detroit Lions will visit the Washington
Redskins on Sunday for an NFC battle, which favors the
Redskins, according to the online sports betting site
Bookmaker.
The bookie has the Washington Redskins listed with betting odds
to win at -200, compared to the Detroit Lions with a money line
of +170. The point spread on the Detroit Lions vs. the
Washington Redskins game shows that the early bettors also
favor the Redskins against the spread, but by only -3.5 points
with a total sitting at 46.5 points. This could be justified by
the betting trends, which show that Detroit is 4-1-1 against the
spread in its last 6 games, but 1-5 against the spread in its
last 6 games when playing on the road against the Washington
Redskins. The total has gone UNDER in 6 of Washington's last 9
games when playing at home against the Detroit Lions.
And the other football game in Week 5 is
between the Atlanta Falcons and the Tennessee Titans,
and the bettors and bookmakers alike believe that it is shaping
to be quite a slaughter for the struggling ATL team. The hosting
Tennessee Titians are the unquestionable favorite to win this
game with betting odds -375 (you'd need to bet 375 to win 100)
and the Falcons are the ultimate underdog with odds +315. The
point spread for the Atlanta Falcons vs. Tennessee Titans
game is a healthy -8 points chalk for the Titans and the total
is listed at 40.5 points at
Bookmaker. Tennessee is 6-1 against
the spread in its last 7 games at home and the total has gone
OVER in 10 of Tennessee's last 15 games at home.
